I didn't run Solarized through WCAG when designing it (I don't believe that was around when I was designing it, though I could be wrong) but I did design it to enable high contrast use (this is mentioned on the site but sometimes overlooked in implementations). The highest contrast base tones as background / foreground colors (base03+base3) do pass with a 13.91:1 ratio. In "low contrast" mode, Solarized passes all but WCAG AAA with a value of 4.74:1.

As my eyes age I often use Solarized in higher contrast configuration, so I'm sensitive to this issue.

Just curious, what are your favorite not-solarized color schemes?
